I rooted for Marquez since the first thump. PAC is a killer straight up and down. 99% of the still get spanked by him. Dude is not a politician, not a hero, not a preacher... He's a fighter first and foremost. He used his fists to get where he is. Everything else came after. Still one of my favs....
